Vermont is famous for its cheese. And for good reason: behind Vermont’s world-class cheeses are inspired farmers, idyllic pastures, intriguing cheese caves, and innovative approaches to cheesemaking. The artisan cheese tour emphasizes the unique personalities, herds, and landscapes that produce an astonishing array of cheeses here in Vermont. Each stop will include a discussion with the cheesemaker and tasting. Be sure to save room for the picnic lunch on the full-day tour featuring food from nearby farms.
